Your Support Makes a Difference!
YWCA Alaska works to empower women and eliminate racism by leveling the playing field for women, people of color, and at-risk individuals. Because of support like yours, we can improve the lives of Alaskan women and under-served community members with programming, outreach, and education.
We do this through four programs:
1. Womens Wellness - Empowering women with tools and education to make informed decisions about their health and wellbeing.
2. Economic Empowerment - Leading individuals to financial freedom and stability through interactive workshops and one-on-one counseling.
3. Womens Leadership - Empowering women and girls to become leaders, through recognition of significant accomplishments and mentorship opportunities.
4. Social Justice - Building racism-free spaces through community dialogues, assessment-driven group development, and advocacy.
Thanks to YOU, more than 48,000 Alaskans are impacted by YWCA Alaska every year. Your commitment to YWCA Alaska says that you are dedicated to creating a world in which peace, justice, freedom and dignity are the right of EVERY person!
